Quick Travel: The beginning is Shura Field

Chapter 1530: Vicious and domineering (37)

In this game of chess, someone is destined to be abandoned.

Either Xiao Ye is a criminal and uses him to abduct Dai Ke to cause trouble, or Dai Ke is an invader and leads his troops to attack Sheng State.

She would rather the former than being scolded by others.

Wen Shu felt that she was being used from beginning to end, and was being pushed forward by Dai Ke's plan. She even inadvertently cooperated perfectly with Dai Ke's plan.

"In order to take over Sheng Kingdom, you even ignored Xiao Ye's reputation?"

"Do you know how people outside are scolding him now? They say he is a criminal who harmed Sheng State and a star of damnation, and that he deserves to die in Chaotian State!" Dai Ke said with satisfaction: "But I must take down Sheng State, and now I don't need to spend a single soldier, and I won't let the people suffer. Do you have a better decision?"

If you were in Dai Ke's position, with a burden on your shoulders that must be accomplished, no one could do better than Dai Ke.

Dai Ke has already played the entire chess game. Only the two emperors and those who deserved to die died, while all the other chess pieces were saved.

Including Wen Shu, who died even though she escaped in her previous life.

Wen Shu staggered back: "It shouldn't be like this. I never thought that Shengguo would become like this. I had planned to use my utmost strength to push Xiao Ye to the top and keep the Zhenguo Mansion safe and sound."

"But everything is different now. It shouldn't be like this!"

Becoming a vassal state and submitting to Chaotian Kingdom is no different from destroying the country. They can only be regarded as a large city-state of Chaotian Kingdom now.

Dai Ke propped up his head and leaned against the low table: "Wen Shu, you have died once, and you still have a kind heart and want to get a perfect ending. This is impossible."

In the previous life, the Emperor of Sheng State had killed Xiao Ye and Wen Shu's family, even Xiao Liangci died, but Wen Shu still never thought of killing the emperor.

Even if she understood Wen Shu, she could never agree with her.

"There are gains and losses, young general."

Wen Shu's pupils widened: "You..."

Wen Shu recalled the current situation and Dai Ke's changes, and suddenly realized: "So you are also reborn, no wonder."

Wen Shu never thought that the current changes were because of Dai Ke. She always thought that it was her rebirth that changed the plot.

It was also her fault that she didn't know Dai Ke well enough to notice her change right away. "When did you find out that I was reborn?"

"I already had my suspicions when you went to Chaotian Kingdom to snatch people in advance."

"Dai Ke, you really played a big game of chess, playing everyone around in circles, and making them cooperate with you willingly."

"Now that the emperor is dead, who will sit on the throne?"

"How should we, the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, deal with the current situation?"

They failed to save Sheng State and even did not start a war, but Sheng State was defeated. The Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion is also guilty.

Dai Ke lifted Xiao Ye's chin and said, "You will be the emperor."

Wen Shu was the first to refute: "He has already been rejected by the people, and you still let him ascend the throne. Isn't that a suspicion of treason?"

Dai Ke said the direction that had been arranged long ago: "I can announce to the public that Xiao Ye did not kidnap me, but we encountered assassins on the way, and this is all a misunderstanding." "Anyway, the emperor is dead, and the edict of surrender has been announced to the world. It is definitely not possible to break the agreement. We can only make amends."

"And do you think the people care about whether there is a plot to usurp the throne? As long as they live well and have a prosperous life, it will be enough. In a happy and contented environment, they will soon forget what happened today."

"They will only remember that the wise ruler who improved their quality of life was Xiao Ye."

Dai Ke was able to plan step by step until everyone was kept in the dark. Wen Shu had no doubt that Dai Ke was bragging, and even firmly believed that everything she said could come true.

"What about the Zhenguo Mansion?"

"I let Xiao Ye sit on the throne, let your Zhenguo Mansion live in peace forever, and let Xiao Liangci still be alive. Isn't this enough? What else do you want?"

None of the strategies and deployment of troops that Wen Shu had learned were of any use.

Her faith had been shattered by Dai Ke's plan. "I request my father to resign. Please allow my family to retire and return home."

Xiao Ye looked at Dai Ke, and when he saw Dai Ke nod, he said, "I agree."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The room returned to peace, and Dai Ke asked Xiao Ye: "Do you hate me?"

Xiao Ye leaned on Dai Ke's knees and said, "I originally had nothing, and you have given me a lot. I am already satisfied."

At first, he just wanted to return to Sheng Country to offset Wen Shu's guilt.

He didn't think about what he could get at first.

It was Dai Ke who gradually inspired him, which led to his current status and he could even become the king of a vassal state.

-

Dai Ke let Xiao Ye sit on the throne, which did encounter a lot of backlash at the beginning.

But as time went on and policies were promulgated, prosperity began to spread from the capital, and this backlash gradually subsided until it disappeared.

"This throne belongs to you."

In the imperial study, Xiao Ye hugged Dai Ke from behind, resting his head on her shoulders and watching the policy she made.

For three years, Xiao Ye was responsible for implementation in the front court, while Dai Ke formulated policies in the rear.

Even in just a few years, the wealth of Shengguo, a vassal state, surpassed that of Chaotian Kingdom.

Dai Ke leaned against him, pinched his brows, and closed his eyes to relieve the dryness in his pupils: "Since I brought you into the quagmire, it's my turn to fish you out."

Back then, Xiao Ye had been blamed for three years because of her plan. Since she had the ability, she would not let him bear the identity of a jinx forever. However, the accumulated busyness over the past three years made Dai Ke a little tired.

"Get ready. We are going to Chaotian Kingdom tomorrow."

"What to do?"

"Now that Sheng Country has begun to prosper, the host country will definitely be concerned. We have to express our stance."

Xiao Ye kissed Dai Ke on the ear: "Okay, I'll arrange it."

As soon as Xiao Ye left, Dai Ke called all the personal guards and secret guards to the yard.

Dai Ke sat on a chair, looking at the more than 300 people led by Zhui Hun, Zi Yi and Xuan Yi.

Especially the three people leading in front, the fatigue on their faces was exactly the same as Dai Ke’s.

"You have all worked hard over the past three years. Now that you are safe and sound, there is no need for you to do anything. Tomorrow my Lord will go to Chaotian Country. Before he comes back, you can take a break and decide whether to stay or go."

Zhuihun was surprised and asked, "Master, are you going to send us away?"

Zi Yi immediately stated: "I am willing to follow the master!"

"I'm not going to dismiss you, I just think you've reached the age where you can settle down and start a family, and live the life you want."

"Also, Ziyi, you don't have to make a decision too early. Wait until I come back from Chaotian Kingdom and then you can give me the answer."

"If you want to leave, I will give you a generous resettlement fee. If you want to stay, you can choose to continue working by my side. If you want to be an official or take a lighter position, I can also arrange for you."
